Peppers With Almonds Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir almonds until toasted and fragrant, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Combine toasted almonds and mayonnaise in a food processor; process until finely chopped. Add roasted red peppers, Parmesan cheese, balsamic vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper; process until desired consistency is reached, scraping down the sides as needed.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Spray the ramekins or disposable aluminum cups with nonstick spray.
• To a medium bowl, add the heavy cream, eggs and Parmigiano and whisk to combine. Season with salt and cayenne. Divide the egg, cream, cheese mixture between the ramekins. Place the filled ramekins in a baking dish and fill halfway with hot tap water. Cover with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool on racks.
• Place the cooled sformato in a warm oven for 10 minutes to reheat.
• While the sformato is reheating toss the peppers and almonds with the greens and a sprinkle of oil, vinegar and salt. Arrange some of the pepper mixture on individual serving plates. Unmold the sformati on the serving plate and arrange the peppers against the sformato. Drizzle with olive oil.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Put the peppers on a broiler pan and broil them until they are black on all sides. Remove them from the broiler, put them in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let them sit for at least 15 minutes, then remove the plastic wrap and let them cool. Using your fingers scrape off all the black char from the outside of the peppers; use a paper towel if needed to assist with this. Remove the stem and seeds and cut the peppers into 1/2-inch wide strips.
• While the peppers are cooling, heat a small skillet over medium-high heat and coat the bottom with olive oil. Add the chorizo and cook until it is crispy on all sides. Remove from the pan to a cutting board and finely chop.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, 2 to 3 tablespoons of olive oil, the garlic, and pimenton. Season with salt, to taste. In a large bowl toss together the roasted peppers, chorizo, almonds, arugula, and a little of the vinaigrette. Add the vinaigrette in stages to make sure the veggies are well coated but not overdressed. Taste to check the seasoning. Arrange on a pretty serving dish and sprinkle with shaved manchego and scallions. OLE!!

Steps:

• Cook shallots and garlic in oil in a 4- to 5-quart heavy pot over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add rice and cook, stirring, until it releases a nutty aroma, about 3 minutes. Add broth and water and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, until rice is tender (grains will split open), about 1 1/4 hours.
• Meanwhile, preheat broiler.
• Halve bell peppers lengthwise, then discard stems and seeds. Put peppers, cut sides down, in 1 layer in an oiled shallow baking pan. Broil 2 inches from heat until charred and softened, 15 to 18 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Cover and let steam 15 minutes. Peel, then cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Melt butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, then add almonds and cook, stirring, until golden, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Remove rice from heat and drain well, then return to pot. Stir in salt, pepper, red peppers, almonds, and vinegar. Transfer to a serving dish.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Tip the pepper, tomatoes, garlic, oil and vinegar into a roasting tin, then toss them together. Roast for 20 mins, then make a space in the roasting tin for the trout fillets, scattering with the almonds and a little salt and pepper.
• Return to the oven for a further 10-15 mins, until the fish is cooked and the almonds lightly toasted. Serve with lemon wedges for squeezing over and a rocket salad on the side.

Steps:

• Top with olives, almonds, and parsley. Drizzle with dressing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• In a baking pan toast almonds in one layer in middle of oven 10 to 15 minutes, or until lightly colored. Cut bell peppers into 2-inch-long strips. In a 12-inch heavy skillet heat 1 tablespoon oil over moderate heat until hot but not smoking and cook half of peppers, stirring frequently, until crisp-tender, about 12 minutes. Transfer cooked peppers to a serving bowl. Cook remaining peppers in remaining tablespoon oil in same manner and transfer to bowl.
• In a 4-quart kettle half filled with boiling salted water cook beans until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes for haricots verts or about 6 minutes for regular green beans. Drain beans in a colander and transfer to bowl. Toss vegetables with almonds and salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 400°F.
• Pulse almonds, bread, and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped. Transfer to a bowl and stir in parsley, oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
• Put half of peppers, alternating colors, in an oiled 9-inch glass or ceramic pie plate and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Sprinkle with half of almond mixture. Repeat layering and bake until hot and crumbs are golden, 20 to 25 minutes.
